i have add successfully hiren-pe and windows10. also i try to add All in One – System Rescue Toolkit but i couldn’t. the massage error show
this doesn’t seem to be valid source either or all of sources boot.wim a>>>>>>>>>>>>
Is it not Ubuntu based, why adding it as Windows source? Try Linux/Orher ISO option if it’s indeed Ubuntu based. Look at Tutorial 3 above.
Olá boa noite,criei um multiboot com iso e ferramentas,como o hiréns boot,deu tela azul com o hiréns boot e com o wndows xp,alguma solução para o ocorrido?
I have a single Win7 Pro 64-bit iso whic i tried to add. But i get the error “doesn’t seem to be valid source either or all of sources boot.wim…”
I confirm that it is not a 32- and 64-bit iso. How to resolve this?
Can 7-zip open it and list its contents? The ISO might not be in UDF format as required.
Does the ISO have the default directories and files present? Sources, boot.wim, install.wim etc.
You should look at or post the log file, it’s quite self-explanatory and easy to spot the issue.
how to make win 7 64 & win 10 64
Add them one after another. Please read the FAQ page
“This doesn’t seem to be (a) valid source!
Either or all of \sources\boot.wim, \bootmgr
\boot\, \boot\BCD are missing, or source is not supported.
RETRY to select another source or CANCEL to return to the main menu(.)”
this happens when i try to burn windows 10 on the flash drive
Are you trying to add multi 32/64 bit ISO? It’s not supported. Use single 32 or 64 bit sources. If you need both- add 2 separate ISOs.
I have been trying for several days now to get an Ubuntu 18.0.4.1 live with persistence to work. I’ve followed the instructions to the letter but it appears the partition/file is not being mounted… even though I add the persistence string where needed.
Did you add “persistent” to the kernel boot options as in the tutorial, point 11?
How did you name the persistent file? Did you try changing to lower/upper case?
Yes, I added “persistent” at the indicated location. Is there a way to set that option on a permanent basis? I used the default name suggested by winsetupfromusb in the advanced options. Which upper/lower case should I be changing? I’ll be the first to admit Linux isn’t my strongest skill set… so I’m at a bit of a disadvantage there. I have however be in IT for 20 years and an not afraid to get my hands dirty trying to figure something out.
Just change CASPER-RW to casper-rw in advanced options and redo the USB stick. That works for me, typing this from Live Ubuntu 18.0.4.1 Desktop ISO, which was rebooted and preserved the wi-fi password and the test folder created in /home. Keep in mind to add persistent to the boot options.
That last bit you can change permanently by editing the Ubuntu ISO file/isolinux/txt.cfg.
Seems partition label expectations vary in each version, the default was put in capital letters because that’s what worked in earlier Ubuntu versions and Linux Mint.
That seems to have done the trick. Thank you for the assistance. For making persistent permanent I am understanding that I need to edit that file on the ISO prior to creating the thumb drive?
Yes, in the ISO, it’s booted as it is. Can edit it on the USB disk as well, but will need to defragment the ISO file after editing in case it ends up fragmented.
There is Wincontig included with the program.
Dear Team,
I create a bootable pendrive using winsetupfromusb software, this is boot the pendrive using grab system. When I am trying to install windows from that bootable pendrive. When select boot from USB, system saying. System taking USB as floppy disk, use ploop boot manager to boot from USB. Please guide, how to boot pendrive using plop boot manager without disturbing current grab os boot. Only some system have seeing this problem. Do needful.
I have a multi-OS system created with XP/Server 2003/Vista/7/8.1/10 Kaspersky Rescue Disc and Hiren’s PE version. How can I duplicate this without having to rebuild each time. I’ve tried creating an ISO from the USB and burning that to another USB but it doesn’t seem to work.
RmPrepUSB has drive to file and file to drive options. Can also use any other software which does sector by sector copy, ImageUSB for example. The target drive has to be 100% identical for this to work.
Creating ISO from USB disk won’t work ever, you are mixing different things.
Sorry, I missed sector by sector in there. That’s what I figured must be done but some how the sector by sector in AOMEI Backupper corrupted the original I made. I use Ghost usually for sector by sector but the version I have doesn’t recognize USB
Try Clonezilla for sector by sector. It supports USB drives and it has options to skip over bad-bad-bad sectors that usually cause a drive cloning operation to grind to a halt.
Thank you for the reply. I’d also tried sector by sector cloning with AOMEI Backerupper but that messed up my original. I’ll go to the RmPrepUSB. Should this work with true sector by sector as in with a standalone hardware duplicator?
